Really Working

I'm on vacation from my day job for a few days. I really like my job, the company where I work and the people I work with. I like sitting at my desk, doing my clerical chores, of filing, answering phones, preparing documents along with cruisin' the web in a nice, air-conditioned setting. I have accumulated too many vacation days. I really have to use them. So, I decided to take off a few days surrounding my b-day, which is Monday.I'm having a tiny b-day brunch on Sunday with a few of my knitster friends. If you read my blog you know that we've been doing some remodeling this year. Our house is chaos. There are bins and piles of stuff in the living and dining rooms that don't belong there. We're slowly re-organizing and clearing things out. There is lots of caulking, touching-up and hanging of paintings to be done. There's nothing like having a little get-together to push us to get everything in order.So, today, tomorrow and Friday I'll REALLLLLLY be working! Some vacation, huh?

It might be hard work but what an excellent birthday present to yourself it'll be to have the place togther. (There's nothing like guests to make you clean a house....) Happy Bday in advance, fellow crab - although I guess you're on the Leo cusp.

Your birthday is making me have to clean house too! Carla is a-coming and you know how those extra bedrooms just stockpile yarn and such. I gotta make room so she can sleep. I will be sweating it out and cleaning right along with you these next few days.
